    Funny, I was also nerding around, but with Java & Riak before our Xmas dinner.

    BTW if any of you open source-loving mega-minds want to prove the superiority of your development methodology, how about making a sound editor that isn't fried ass? Or a video editor that comes within 2 orders of magnitude of half as good as Vegas or Premiere?

    First, Scrum is a methodology, not open source, that's licensing.
    Second, this is the same thing with Gimp vs Photoshop all over again. Propietary and paid software have their place and at least you should be thankful of having the option to either pay for a professional product or don't and that it brings competition to the table, which means more value for your bucks.

    The real problem is the "proprietary = total black box" attitude taken by some vendors, which renders the software very hard to adapt to one's needs; this is doubly true when combined with the Apple "we know better than you, so there's no config box" attitude.

    Hint: specialized systems for specialists need to adapt to specialist workflows.

    That would be some time after btrfs's reputation for locking up under certain unpredictable classes of workload, having truly horrible performance on heavy random intra-file update workloads and being astoundingly poorly documented has had enough years to die.
